Pokemon GO trainers are counting down the days until Piplup brings in a new year of Community Day events. The January festivity takes place later this week, on January 19, and trainers will be heading out into the world to catch a ton of the Water-type starter.
Now that the Pokemon GO Community Day event is just a few days away, Niantic is finally ready to reveal the exclusive move for Piplup’s Empoleon evolution. The reveal shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to players who follow the events closely, because it lines up with the moves learned by previous generation Water-type starters.
Evolving Prinplup during the event (or up to two hours after) will reward players with access to Hydro Cannon Empoleon. This move is definitely an upgrade, although crunching the numbers makes it look like it isn’t going to shake up the PoGO metagame very much in the grand scheme of things.
Hydro Cannon is a strong move, but it doesn’t actually bring Empoleon up to the same tier as the other Water-type Battle Raid favorites. That said, it will help Empoleon climb the ranks in Trainer Battles. The Water-type may still not be a top choice in any of the Leagues, but it can get the job done in a pinch for sure.
Even though Hydro Cannon Empoleon isn’t going to shake things up, this is still likely going to be a very popular Community Day event thanks to the popularity of the Water-type starter. Players should show up for the shiny hunt if nothing else.
For now, players may want to keep hunting down the best Unova Pokemon in the game if improving their Battle Raid rosters is their primary goal. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
